Avant will use the default language of the operating system as it's interface language. For example, if you are using an Italian version of Windows, even if you have it set to English, Avant will use Italian as the interface language.

I don't understand this.
I have an English version of Windows and in Control panel > Regional Language Options I have English.
If I set Option > Interface Language to e.g. French then all the menus etc. are in French.
This is what I would expect.
What is the point of this option if it doesn't take any notice of it?
Can you clarify what you mean? Thanks.

If you have and Italian version of Windows, for example, and have Windows set to display English instead of Italian, Avant will use Italian by default. Obviously you can change this but the default is the version of Windows you have installed.

sigh. i speak english only. i am in thailand. so many programs ignore my windows settings and give me thai menu's etc.
everybody keeps saying "tools menu, sixth from the left" but come on! i don't have a "tools" menu, i have icons, and everything that drops down from them is in thai language.

i see "green arrow, dimmed right arrow, double arrow (refresh??), a house, a clock with and arrow around it, a blue arrow pointing to upper left. clicking around in any of these does all sorts of things that i can't follow - because anything that appears is sin thai.

i know you advanced users out there think this is a simple and obvious question, but it's NOT. so please, if you reply give *detailed* response so the rest of us can follow it. simply saying "go to the tools menu, choose english" doesn't work, is wrong, there is no f*ing tools menu! english as a choice doesn't appear anywhere i can see it.

else, i'll just have to trash this browser and look elsewhere for an alternative.

You are describing a toolbar (which traditionally contains icons and, perhaps, some words); those trying to help you are directing you to the menu bar (traditionally words only, although the latest menu bar starts with the "online storage" icon [globe with diskette in front of it]).

On that menu bar (which should appear at top of screen, above any toolbars), the fifth word after the online storage icon is "Tools". Therefore, the fifth word on your thai menu bar should be the thai equivalent for "Tools". Selecting that word should drop-down a menu. On that revealed menu, in the 11th position, should be "Interface Language". (On my American English version of the Tools menu, the first 7 items are followed by a line/break, followed by 4 more items--the last being "Interface Language"--before the next line/break.)

@brawnymike Thank you so much! that worked! i didn't even know that the thai script in the upper right side of the window was a menu bar. upper-right is not traditional placement for a menubar. thanks for the hand-holding. i was liking Avant- what i could use of it, now i'm all creamy. 'ppreciate it.
